FSL – School-To-Work

This programme introduces students to the museum as a complex system in which a wide range of professionals work together to protect, enhance and communicate cultural heritage.

Through themed tours, meetings with professionals, workshops and practical simulations, students discover the work of art historians, architects, curators, museum educators, conservators, cultural communication specialists and the many other professionals whose expertise makes the life of a museum possible.

The experience provides an insight into the organisation of Palazzo Venezia and the Vittoriano, while helping students develop observation, teamwork and planning skills, as well as offering guidance on university courses and career paths in the cultural heritage sector.

The programme focuses on new forms of cultural heritage communication and gives students the opportunity to explore how a museum builds and develops its dialogue with the public.

Drawing on the collections and spaces of the Vittoriano and Palazzo Venezia, students learn techniques of storytelling, cultural communication, writing for the web and social media, and producing podcasts and video content, while learning how to design effective communication for different audiences.

The activities combine theoretical sessions with practical workshops, fostering creativity, digital skills, storytelling abilities and collaborative working
